Paddle & Wine Tasting Tour |
We have teamed up with
Tarara Winery in Loudoun County, Virginia to offer you a
unique experience on a private paddle and wine tour. Our guides will meet you
at the winery and guide you on a 4.5 to 7 mile canoe paddle (kayaks can also be
used) on the Potomac or Shenandoah River. This gentle stretch is rich in
natural beauty and makes for a relaxing and fun time on this scenic stretch of
river. You will finish back at the winery, where you will experience
award-winning wines in the privacy of an outdoor pavilion. Linen tablecloths
and eight different wines set the stage for a comprehensive wine education.
After sampling several premium wines, choose your favorite and enjoy a full
glass accompanied by cheese and crackers. The staff at Tarara will lead you on
a 15-20 minute tour of the wine making cave, allowing you to continue at your
own pace.
The paddle and wine tour is an exquisite event, great for
corporate groups, couples, wine connoisseurs and anyone who can appreciate the
love of river and wine.

Paddle, Wine & Concert
Series
The Sounds of Summer Concert Series boasts Saturday evenings full
of music performed by legendary musicians, award-winning wine and good
food…all under the stars. Tucked in the woods on Tarara's 475 acres, the
concert stage hangs (suspended) next to Shadow Lake and creates the perfect
venue for summer blues, 80s, 90s and contemporary pop hits. Join River &
Trail for a guided leisurely paddle along the Potomac River and ending at
Tarara just before the concert begins. You will have the opportunity to sample
wines and purchase foods along with the crowd that has come to enjoy the
concert. Bring a blanket and lie under the stars as you enjoy the featured
bands.

"I wanted to thank you all for another great trip.
This was our second year using River & Trail and once again it was a
pleasant experience. Our staff could not say enough about what a good time they
had and how smooth the trip went. I tell everyone about our trip and about R
&T, and you should all be very proud of your organization. It is something
we will be doing again!"
